Perfect!


Last night Jason and I attended our friends wedding! it was so beautiful and perfect! She was the most beautiful bride I have ever seen! Congrats again Aaron & Kam! Here is just a couple pictures from their wedding.



My grandma handed down her christmas tree to us, so we put it up and started decorating it the other night! We are happy to be able to enjoy it for the next week. We are spending Christmas in Utah, and we leave next week. I cannot WAIT! I am so excited to see everyone, and I LOVE road trips with my favorite guy Jason! it will be our last road trip together. next time we will have a screaming baby in the backseat, I'm sure! :) oh and I did finally get new luggage. this would have been handy like 2 years ago, but now at the end of our travels, i finally bought some. (hey it was on sale!) :) fyi: we have been using duffle bags everywhere we go. you should have seen us in hawaii carrrying around 5 duffle bags! it was ridiculous!

Half WAy!

We just got back from a week in Hawaii! Jason won a trip through his work and we decided to take a couple extra days and stay for a whole week! we had so much fun! There was so much to do and we definitely didn't get to do everything!
The first half of the trip we stayed in Waikiki, on Oahu. We went sailing and Jason had his first Real coconut! :) We hiked Diamond Head, and did a lot of shopping, and of coarse layed out on the beach. My uncle Geoff and aunt Leslie live in Hawaii so wewere lucky to have "locals" to show us around!
The second half of the trip we made our way up to the North Shore where we stayed at Turtle Bay Resort. We went snorkeling, saw sea turtles, drove around in our mustang convertible, Jason went golfing with his friend Brett, while I went and got my first pregnancy massage! Hey I deserve it, I just passed my half way mark last week!
Before Hawaii i was wearing my favorite Jeans and by the time we were leaving I couldn't fit into them :)!! Baby must of had a growth spurt while we were there, and I started feeling her move around for the first time! She totally knew we were in Hawaii and wanted to come out and play...

Uncle Geoff and Aunt Leslie, they picked us up from the airport and "leied" us! I was really excited , cause I thought everyone got a Lei when they got off the airplane, but apparently not.

Overlooking Waikiki, Diamond head is the point in the back, which we hiked the next day.


Going sailing out of Waikiki, It's windy out there in that big ocean.

our view from the hotel we stayed at in Waikiki.

Jason trying his first real coconut, which isn't bad! It took us forever to find a place that served real coconuts and real fruit smoothies! how silly is that? We were on the middle of a tropical island, i didn't think they would be so hard to come across!

Can I just be Huge and pregnant looking already!?!?!? I really wanted to take prego pics in front of the setting sun, but I guess this is all you get...a tiny baby bump!

Jason loved these trees, they have a ton of roots growing from the ground as it's trunk. they looked really cool. Jason couldn't resist swinging on it's hanging branches!

Our rental car! mustang convertible.

We hiked Diamond Head and this is the view overlooking Waikiki, I'm pretty proud of myself doing it 5 months pregnant! lol! really it was only 1 1/2 miles


Out to dinner with my aunts and Uncles! :)

Jason's new nickname for me.

Jason and his friend Brett and little girl Taylor at sharks cove, I didn't know we knew so many people in Hawaii!



Snorkling, which is so fun! but you look like the biggest dork! I love it!


Pearl Harbor, we missed the tours, dang it, so we settled for the museum and just walking around and learning more about it.
